The Defense, with its Armed Forces, has once again demonstrated extraordinary competence and great humanity. I sincerely thank all those who, with dedication and promptness, have made this intervention possible. It is thanks to them that Italy continues to be a point of reference, a country that believes in dialogue, peace and help to those who are most fragile”.
The Defense has guaranteed technical and operational support to the activity, with the loading and transport of humanitarian material by Army assets, under the coordination of the Joint Operations Command (COVI).
